FYI! I'm trotting down to the library tomorrow and getting a copy of North and South. Because I want to talk to you about Victorians! I have read Shirley and Mary Barton and Felix Holt and Hard Times and a fair amount of crit, but I can't talk to you about North and South, and THIS PAINS ME, I tell you!
Start talking about it. You never know who might come out of the woodwork. I am going to Con.txt in DC this June and there may be (schedule hasn't been finalized yet) a whole panel on Victorians! I will report back. Unless you want to come. My room has one pillow left.
Less specifically, I hear you about the comfort food, and the needing fellow niche dwellers. My own problem is that I mainly want to squee about other people's fanfic, and then I feel like I must look like a brown-noser.
